Medical Specialties :: Rehabilitation & Physiotherapy Service
The physical therapy department has private treatment rooms and a gym. The department is equipped to provide physical therapy ….
HCIH qualified physiotherapists will prevent, correct and alleviate acute or prolonged movement dysfunction in order to improve your physical condition and therefore your quality of life. Our goal is to design a unique program of recovery, health and wellness that fits each person's needs.
Physiotherapists focus first and foremost on resolving pain, stabilising an injury or condition and keeping it from getting worse. Then the focus is on restoring strength, movement and function as much as possible. The ultimate goal is to enable our patients to manage their own physical well-being independently.
Each patient’s individual treatment program is developed after a personal assessment. We provide a global ambulatory treatment, using different physical techniques, such as manual therapies, electrotherapy, massage, therapeutic exercises, heat therapy, criotherapy… and a final assessment is performed at the end of the treatment.

Cardiovascular Rehabilitation
If you suffer from a documented chronic cardiac condition, a peripheral arterial pathology or have recently suffered a heart attack, undergone cardiac or vascular surgery or angioplasty, our cardiovascular rehabilitation programme is ideal for you. The services of our cardiovascular rehabilitation programme will help you to renew your capacities and to improve your physical and mental health, enabling you to take your place in society as normally as possible.
Together, we will design a structured and efficient programme ensuring optimum retraining enabling you to pursue your daily activities as normal.
Traumatologic and Orthopaedic Physiotherapy
After a surgical operation (prostheses, arthroscopies, ligament reconstruction) you lose the strength, coordination and mobility which stops you from doing your normal activities. Therefore, you will need medical training therapy to come back to your normal life. We could also help you in case you have had an accident, fractures, back pain…
Neurological Treatment
If you suffer from hemiplegia after a stroke, nerves palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinsons disease or some neurological problems, you will need a specific training programme from a qualified physiotherapist specialising in these kind of problems.
We will work with you to gain balance, mobility and strength so you gain your independence for daily activities.
Sport injuries
If you are in a good condition:
» you are less likely to get injuries.
» strong muscles are less likely to tear.
» good all-round conditioning will balance the body and help avoid unnecessary injuries.
Acute or traumatic injuries occur due to a sudden force, or impact, and can be quite dramatic. (Muscle sprains and strains, Achilles Tendon Rupture, Knee injuries)
The most common golf injuries occur in the lower back, elbows, shoulders, hands and wrists, and are generally defined as either cumulative (overuse) or acute (traumatic) injuries. The impact and stress of the repetitive motion of the swing is sometimes hard on the muscles and joints. The best way to avoid an injury is to prevent them with proper conditioning.
Tennis injuries are generally defined as either cumulative (overuse) or acute (traumatic) injuries. Overuse injuries occur over time due to stress on the muscles, joints and soft tissues without proper time for healing. They begin as a small, nagging ache or pain, and can grow into a debilitating injury if they aren't treated early (Tennis elbow, rotator cuff tendonitis, Impingement Syndrome, wrist tendonitis)
Tennis elbow: signs and symptoms
Consult our specialists if you have:
Pain that radiates from the outside of the elbow into the forearm and wrist
Pain when touching or bumping the outside of the elbow
A weak grip
A painful grip during certain activities, such as shaking hands or twisting a doorknob
We will offer you the Physiotherapy to gain more power and coordination and flexibility in your muscles after an injury so you get in shape and come back to the level you had before.
In our fully equipped gym with the supervision of our team, you will find all the facilities for a successful recovery so you could go back to the sport field in a short period of time or prevent any problem before it appears.
Therapeutic Massage
The effects of the therapeutic massage alongside training will improve the circulation and the metabolism of the muscle so you get in better condition for exercises and sports.
Different kinds of massage are offered depending on the problem: Muscle contracture, circulation problems, stress, tendon inflammation…
Electrical therapy
The benefits of the electrical therapy are renown world wide in sports medicine and orthopaedic treatment:
Ultrasound uses sound waves to create a mechanical effect which is helpful in inflammatory process, contracture, healing of the scars…
Short wave create an electromagnetic field that has had big success in the treatment of posttraumatic conditions (sprains, contusions…), chronic inflammation (arthritis, tendonitis…), wound healing, peripheral blood circulation…
Electro stimulation offers different current types such as interferential, diadinamics, TENS useful mostly in pain therapy and muscles stimulation.
Magneto therapy is a safe physiatrist method in the treatment of many diseases.
Heated indoor pool
Hydrotherapy combines the benefits of water and movements in it. In our service you can follow a water program as the exercises executed in water are partial weight bearing which are excellent for diseases which cause restricted mobility
